1/ 🧵 /The Whole Vegetable/ Sophie Gordon

It is a thing these days to write (or at least own) cookbooks about no waste or using the whole product. Truth be told, these cookbooks have been around for ever, just not named that way.

Sophie Gordon published on in the past couple of years. She is UK based, but you'd never know as her website (https://www.sophgordon.com) overlooks this important detail. It is only in the Catering section that she mentions they source local UK ingredients.

Soph is about seasonal and veg-heavy food. This is her first cookbook. The blurb for the cookbook is full of buzz words - seasonal, vibrant, sustainable, vegetable-heavy, eco-conscious, no-waste.

The Whole Vegetable, by Sophie Gordon
Published: 2020
Pages: 384
Publisher: Michael Joseph
Price: around $42AU, but look around as prices vary.An eBook is available.

Recipes: 158, all of which are vegetarian and egg-free.

The book is divided into seasons. This could be a problem for Australia readers as our seasons don't translate by just doing a 6-month shift.It does help that Summer is divided into Early Summer and Height of Summer. Similarly Winter is Winter Begins and Depths of Winter.

Each season is divided into a section for each vegetable featured. Many recipes feature Waste Tips - what to do with the bits we normally would not use.
